Say Anything's Daytrotter sessions are now up.

Forbes sat down with Max Bemis to talk about his "song shop" project.

From the Article

“I feel I’m getting to function almost as a pseudo therapist for kids,” he says. Song Shop allows Bemis to create a direct connection to the most passionate fans, those who would gladly spend a little more cash for a unique connection to their favorite act, and it’s a business endeavor that has a lot of spiritual gratification. While the fans certainly feel more connected to Bemis hearing him sing about whatever issues they were struggling with or random thought they wanted him to sing, it also helps Bemis connect to those who love his work: “I really write and play the songs imagining someone hearing...

From the Interview

I think in this day in age… Well first of all, on a creative level, to me there is definitely no such thing as writing too much music. You continue to develop and you can’t evolve unless you are working on music or at least thinking about it. I never get burnt out on the act of songwriting, especially with Song Shop where I’m writing hundreds of songs a year. It’s just constantly a way to improve my singing and my songwriting and to stay in it. And it’s also the thing I love to do the most. But then also, when it comes to the exposure and over-exposing, I just feel like in this day in age, where everyone...

Say Anything frontman Max Bemis wrote an essay on his definition of anarchy.

Creating Anarchy Is For The Greater Good

I am a fairly passive, overly analytical and neurotic Jewish guy with almost no set political beliefs or attachments and a seemingly tame lifestyle. I spend most of my time reading, playing music and hanging out with my wife. Gone are the days of wanton self-destruction and flagrant drug use. Thankfully, I've pulled myself out of a couple of pretty Sid and Nancy-esque relationships and now rest comfortably in a loving, supportive one. I sit around and play with my dogs a lot and live in a very conservative, slow-paced town in Texas. So why is it that at this stage in my...

Doghouse Records seems to be hinting pretty hard at a Say Anything vinyl re-issue.

At this point, we've all decided to listen to Max Bemis through thick and thin, in sickness and in health. For nearly ten years, the Say Anything mastermind has won over fans through all kinds of sounds, and will do it again with the release of Anarchy, My Dear on March 13th via Equal Vision Records. I had the chance to chat with Max, where we talked about the new record, "Admit It Again," ...Is A Real Boy, Perma (his band with wife Sherri Dupree-Bemis), and the future in general. You can read the feature right here.

Max Bemis talks with Billboard about the connections between ...Is a Real Boy and the band's upcoming album.

There's a sense of chaos and an anything-can-happen sort of excitement. That was one of the defining characteristics of "…Is A Real Boy' and why people connected with it, was a certain amount of "I don’t give a fuck." IT'’s like revisiting those themes, but where I can actually sort of tackle them with a clear head.

From the Interview

Changing labels did have a lot of the do with the creative process, with feeling like I could really put my heart and soul into something without straining it or having to be something to somebody because being on an independent label seeing us for exactly what we are. There was a little less pressure to be something that was more mass consumption-ready.
